    Based on your upload date, I’m guessing it’s incompatible on new Winlators? I’m on 7 and I get a black screen when I run the shortcut. Gonna try 5(on RP3+)to see if it has your identical options available. Let me know which version if it is older than 5.0, the image guide 404’d on your website. I made it to the end but it won’t load the open screen of pico 8 so far. New Winlator doesn’t have the precise options of Turnip+Zink or LLVMpipe. I’m guessing I need the older winlator? I’m going to play around with settings until I get a combination that works with your advice. Or maybe I should uninstall and start over on the older winlator?

    So in summary, neither hits the spot of providing the perfect retro pocket device. The anbernic feels closer if they sort the controls & suspend mode. Maybe next version will resolve these faults, but given what you've shown today, both are compromised and neither are a buy. Might as well use existing devices and wait. Thank you for this excellent review which has stopped me buying yet another retro handheld with compromises and disappointment

      Hey man, I hoped that WOULDN’T be the takeaway from this video. For the price I think both of these are great, but as you said there are other devices: some commenters made great recommendations such as the RG280V, RG280M, RG300X. These are all still wonderful devices and play all the old systems. For me, design-wise the Miyoo A30 is a good option.

    Spruce OS was a complete gamechanger for the A30 and it is good that it still has a lower reputation because now you can buy it for 35 bucks or so. For such a great micro handheld, it really is the best deal right now. We might get Onion on the A30 eventually too. Micro: OG MM with Onion/A30 with Spruce Pocketable size: Anbernic 35XX-H/SP to use as a portable Pi. Max bang for your buck? R36S "Why is this so cheap?Might as well buy": Datafrog SF2000 and the vertical variant for less than 10 bucks with the SD rework and the improved OS. Everything else I think it twice if I should buy that or a Steam Deck and is dependant on usecase.

    Having both for a while, I was in the minority for a long time calling out the Miyoo as the better of the 2. The rattle of the 28xx can't be dampened no matter what mod you perform, and it's an absolute deal breaker for something you want to carry around in your pocket. The feel of the 28xx is also hard in the hand in comparison, not sure why, maybe the plastic used, but it doesn't feel good for extended sessions. Glad the community is finally coming around to what I've been preaching.

    The nano buttons of the RG28XX are a pure and simple NO WAY, even with better performance and battery. The A30 win in controls, aesthetics and sleep mode, adding a joystick and wifi. What else?

    I like MinUI as well but they have have to fix the audio crackle and pops, it really detracts from the quality of the firmware.

    The RG28XX is such a nice device. It doesn’t pip my Miyoo Mini+ for my top spot, but it’s a Retro Dream, been playing Advance Wars II and it looks real nice. All the 8Bit & 16Bit stuff plays well, I’m using Knulli as an OS, but the stock OS is OK, it really is. I’m very happy with the screen brightness, and there is no bleed at low levels. I’ve adopted a glasses case as it’s sleeping bag :) one of the ones with the snap closure and it works well. The sound isn’t great, and it rattles, but for the price it’s almost unbeatable.

      Yes it does seem like both these handhelds have struck a chord with people.

    I have both. Miyoo a30 is the clear winner after installing spruce os. It’s lighter, buttons feel like nes controller, triggers are easier to press. It’s good upto ps1. Wish it was little more powerful. But I’ll be keeping the miyoo a30.

      If you install spruce os on the miyoo you need to install muOS on the anbernic.

      @@ks1ngh27 I agree, but power is needed if you want shaders. Turn on shaders and the a30 is not good enough.

      For these devices, rather use filters, not shaders.

    Mini devices won me over. I thought I'd be bothered with small screens, but no! A well designed mini device makes the screen feel good. I'm even playing it at home, which was not my initial intention. The A30 is my current favorite device. It's well designed, which makes it disappear when you're playing, so that you can focus on your retro game. It's also comfortable for the size, the build quality is good, and the controls are great. A bit of false diagonals, it's true, but I can roll the d-pad and play games with a lot of precision. I guess I got used to it. I'm actually beating my own arcade records with it in games like Metal Slug 1 and Blazing Star. I disagree about the shoulder buttons. I love them! It's a breath of fresh air seeing silent shoulder buttons on such a cheap device. Overall we should avoid using shoulder buttons on mini devices because they're not comfortable to use no matter how well designed the device is.

    The RG28XX with minUi is amazing! There are now additional standalone emulators you can run (N64, PSP, DC, DS). They also just added NeoGeo
